Agreed. I’m in a meeting, but the dogs and baby update is much more interesting than who has been falsifying supply logs.

Pretty soon the baby will become interested in licking the dogs too and then you're really screwed.

I'm hoping I can use lies or trickery to convince him not to

I love seeing Rocco's face develop! It's so interesting with kids that you can look at your teenager's face and totally see how it's related to their baby face but you can't anticipate looking at your baby what they will look like when they're older. Also you're going to be totally routed as soon as Rocco gains independent movement and can go to the dogs to engage in an orgy of saliva exchange. Enjoy your power now over Rocco's location...the end is nigh. Chaos is right around the corner! Can't wait to hear about it :)

Well done and much fun. If we could lick this column in appreciation, we would.

Next weekend we are introducing our dog Ollie to our baby granddaughter. We are more than a little nervous. Licking will be the least of our troubles.. trying to grab her by the nappy is our biggest fear
